[edit] Bong 98

WP:NEO Neologism - almost no Google appearances other than Wikipedia mirrors. Not even listed in Urban Dictionary. John Nagle 19:26, 26 April 2006 (UTC)

  • Keep. This may be difficult for Google, since it may have peaked prior to the Internet. But it is attested in non-Wikipedia sources here, here, here, and here (Spanish language), which show at least that the name of the game is not original to Wikipedia. This is a game that if you remember the rules, you weren't playing correctly; but the account seems close enough to my fuzzy memories of the game. Not OR or neologism at any rate.

Comment The first three references are blog entries. The last is a circular reference; it's a Spanish translation of the English Wikipedia article Bartok (game). --John Nagle 19:41, 27 April 2006 (UTC)
  • Keep. I am the author and have already made my remarks on the article talk page.SuMadre 21:29, 26 April 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete or Merge with Bartok (game)... Seems to fit the definition of a neologism pretty well. The 1970s is pretty recent as English language words go, and it seems to have died out since the 1980s. All those sources are forum posts, blog posts, and wikis. — AKADriver ☎ 22:00, 26 April 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete. No reliable sources, no assertion of notability. How do I know this wasn't made up in school one day? Brian G. Crawford 22:25, 26 April 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete as per AKADriver, not notable. porges 22:49, 26 April 2006 (UTC)
  • Keep It's notable as it's a real game...at least at Rutgers it is.74.32.6.78 02:23, 28 April 2006 (UTC)
